Aporia - a mystical trip to the fantastic world of an abandoned valley, located in the middle of the ancient ruins of the once powerful civilization. Pursued by the dark essence that wanders in a misty valley, you must uncover a mysterious story about ancient people who suddenly disappeared. What happened to the Valley? This is the main question of Aporia. An attractive adventure from the first person introduces a completely new approach to the art of narration. Without using any text or dialogues, Aporia challenges you, to help you make up your own unique vision about what happened. Why are you here? What led to the disappearance of the Ancients? Who is the dark ghost and why does he follow you? In the end, will you be able to forgive? ..

In a metaphorical sense, Aporia deals with actual environmental problems of the present and speculations about how the use of energy can make humanity blind in regard to its destructive impact on nature. You will see the processes of extinction of the charmingly beautiful ancient architecture, inspired by ancient Mesoamerican and Slavic cultures, as well as alien and unfamiliar landscapes formed by years of pollution and mother nature activity. Aporia pays tribute to classic adventures such as Myst and Riven, but with a greater focus on the not-so-traditional way of storytelling, allowing many stories to remain open to interpretation.
